I heard you whisper
Above the moonlight
While my thoughts
Were locked in dream
Travelling quietly
Upon a wanton kiss
By the wayside
Satin smooth.
I heard your heartbeat
Distant drumming
From a land
So far away
In a night
That gently nestled
Upon the midnight
Long gone day.
I felt your touch
In depth
Of gentleness
Your hand
To stroke my hair
As I awakened
To a cold dawn
You were not there.

Was I there? Was it me? Or was I a figment of people's imagination? If so, no change there then for me. lol.
maybe we are all figments of imagination, thanks for reading much appreciated
Why yes, I say - from my Cloud Cuckoo Land! lol.

So I said to this person - 'Who you calling a figment?' lol.

Nope, he did not care a fig. lol.
LOL
Oohh, I can't have figs since I had a figgy biccy years ago and was 'trotting'. Too Much Information there. lol.
This poem speaks in a wistful manner with a melancholic voice of a longing for someone missed. it echoes with sadness. Very nicely written
As always much appreciated, thanks
